For the 5th consecutive year, Europe Congress organizes the MCE South Europe forum – a highly successful MICE event bringing together worldwide buyers with high quality solution providers from South Europe.

DMCs, PCOs, event management companies, convention bureaus, hotels, airlines from participating South European countries meet up with carefully selected, qualified and pre-screened buyers. Not only do all business counterparts meet face-to-face in match-made meetings but they also spend quality time together, as can only happen in this boutique format event.

MCE South Europe offers the perfect mix of pre-scheduled meetings, educational sessions presented by industry opinion leaders, networking opportunities and social events.
It will be your best investment - as many of our previous and returning participants say – into finding new business leads and partners.
